What a special volume. Steane's coverage of recorded classical music in the first seventy years of the 20th century is unrivalled. From the singers to the works, from the technology to the brilliant ideas, this is something to treasure for a lifetime.
A special series of volumes, allowing one to revel in the late JB Steane's seemingly endless knowledge on the great recording artists of the 20th century.
Book condition: Good. No DJ.
